Question

196 – I am playing solo against Magneto, Boarding Party (Magneto cannot have more than 6pp sustained damage) is in play, Magneto has sustained 5 damage, and has Magnetic Bubble (When Magneto would take any amount of damage, place it here instead) attached. If I deal 2, or more, damage to him, how much damage is he considered to have taken, and how much is placed on Magnetic Bubble?

Answer

All damage dealt is placed on Magnetic Bubble. Boarding Party does not reduce damage dealt to Magneto, only the damage he can sustain (as in, his HP dial can’t go below a certain number). You still “deal” the full damage of your attack to him, redirecting it all to Magnetic Bubble in this case.
